Timer and start/end times keep running regardless of current question's timer.

This means the quizee may have to 'catch up' to the current question if they fall back

This is somewhat annoying to do properly.

According to the official procedure,

Some time after the time component of a question reaches zero, the countdown of the time component of the next question starts – this will be indicated

This, if i understand correctly, can go on for multiple questions.

Currently, we only maintain one submitTimer and various other data in the global state only for a single, current, question.

Ideally, we'd extend this to maintain the submitTimer (and associated) state within the question object.

Alternatively, all timing is done based off of the global Quiz timer, with offsets based on the length of the previous questions.

I will reconsider this a a later point because i'm tired
